Characterization and Treatment Study of A handcraft Brass Trumpet From Dhamar Museum, Yemen

Brass is more malleable and has better acoustic properties than pure copper or zinc; consequently, it is used in a variety of musical instruments, including trumpets, trombones, bells, and cymbals. The overall goal of this work is to represent an analytical and conservation study of brass Trumpet f...
